Your challenge

Sustainability as a business-critical factor

Sustainability is increasingly becoming a key factor for stable customer relationships.

Is your company a supplier to a group that falls under the CSRD reporting obligation or that has to prove that sustainability standards are complied with in its supply chain?

Suddenly you are being asked to ensure that all your employees are trained in environmental and sustainability issues. Without reliable proof, your business relationship is at risk.

Thanks to a wide range of customizing options, the content can also be tailored precisely to your industry and company practice.

Thanks to these modules and features, your employees make an important contribution:
